NVIDIA Announces New Driver for Apex, DMC5 and The Division 2, ‘RTX Triple Threat’ Bundle & Three New G-SYNC Compatible Displays

NVIDIA dropped a trio of announcements today. To begin with, they announced a new ‘RTX Triple Threat’ bundle featuring DICE’s Battlefield V, BioWare’s Anthem and 4A Games’ Metro Exodus for those who buy GeForce RTX graphics cards at participating retailers. If you get a 2080 or 2080Ti GPU, you’ll be able to receive codes for all three games, while purchasing a 2070 or 2060 will allow you to choose one between all three.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX brings you the most immersive gaming experience whether you’re knee-deep in the trenches of Battlefield V, soaring through alien skies in Anthem, or surviving the harsh world of Metro Exodus.

For a limited time, purchase a qualifying GeForce RTX 2080 Ti or 2080 graphics card, gaming desktop, or gaming laptop and get Battlefield VAnthem, and Metro Exodus (an incredible $180 value!). Pick up a qualifying GeForce RTX 2070 or 2060 graphics card, gaming desktop, or gaming laptop and get your choice of these incredible titles.

Secondly, the list of official G-SYNC compatible displays has been updated to include three additional models:
